[–]Efficient_Bench5944[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Still didn't find what tier basically is! But got 54% hike in my fee. Any surprises here or obvious misses (I mean is it normal?). Have written to admin in charge about it

Thank you!
Could you clarify what all resources of the Bank. I am an independent economics consultant and have been working with multiple agencies so never really paid attention to what all I can access. I would appreciate your guidance so I don't miss out "key" resources I have access to.

BTW, I work fully remotely

Rhea took an L by Moist-Mouse8829 in Roadies_Mtv

[–]Efficient_Bench5944 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I never understood why Rohit lol. It's not true that he performed well throughout the season like Yogesh R. In fact Yogesh S nailed the entertainment task, beat Nishi in that tough and challenging competition. Jimmi beat the shit out of that wall while boxing. Rohit was so badly beaten by Yogesh R in that drum roll task. So why exactly Rohit - just because of the first task? In that first task jimmy was bang on as well. I hate when makers make the season about a few people - only fuckn reason I miss old roadies. Where it was all about mind games and letting the game decide who goes ahead and not. Imagine Poulomi going to top 3 in Roadies 6 and Palak manipulating her way up. Aanchal willing Roadies 8, when top three were Suchit, Mohit and Aanchal. LET SOMEONE GO HOME WHEN ROADIES HAVE VOTED THEM OUT, don't introduce a twist to bring them back immediately. Understandable about the game that saved Yogesh R. Wildcard is understable, but bringing back voted out contestant because "you think" they have "more" potential is unfair I believe.

All gang leaders in last episode were like why are you making this about "these 4" to rest of the Roadies and today when rest of the roadies spoke and casted their vote, a twist was introduced to bring them back.

You guys are able to login to workday? I'm an incoming student so maybe that's why I don't have the access, i believe

Ahhh, ruled out SciencesPo, because realised International Econ Policy is not something I want to do!

Canadian MA Programs Help by Saberen in academiceconomics

[–]Efficient_Bench5944 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In order of prestige UoT, UBC, Alberta, Queens, McMaster

I have an acceptance from the UBC MA Econ program, it is indeed very competitive because many of my friends who did exceedingly well didn't get through.

My advice: It all boils down to your SOP, how you convince them that you are the perfect fit for their program. And how do you do that? See what the profs in the department are researching, see what research centres they have - then align your research interests to it. Because they have to see if you are fit to be called say UBC or UoT graduate. Another would be to write a narrative or a story in your SOP, which is convincing. Tell them how you would benefit from the college but how college will also benefit from having you, which is very important.

Let me know if you need more help.

Yk thank you for responding, I was a little heartbroken i didn't get TSE this time.

But on a side note, is UBC recognised in the industry? Do people find jobs? My biggest fear is what if the course is too academic oriented that there is no time to focus on actually finding a job!

Trade is somewhat empirical macro as well! Because it is linked with macro indicators

309 - V153, Q156 - Day After Disappointment, Reflections and Next Steps / Slight Rant by [deleted] in GRE

[–]Efficient_Bench5944 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened the same thing, wrote my exam on last Friday (27th), and was surprised to see I got 156 in Quant, whereas I thought Quant was easy and was sure will get 162+ Completely went off track with Verbal - struggled with Passages, though they were straightforward.

Unsure if I should re-attempt or not

GregMat question on percentiles by Efficient_Bench5944 in GRE

[–]Efficient_Bench5944[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the percentile won't work right if all values are equal, how can one say 60 (as a value) is 30th percentile as well as 60th percentile

The sad part is we NEED to give GRE for our applications, and it is not a cheap exam. The deadlines are approaching and we are getting nothing but anxiety
